Original Hooked Rugs and Santas, Witches and other characters by Sunnie

July 2014 HF&F Mystery rug/Sunnie/rug hooking-primitive-Day 9

I love these greens…and more “buggy” chartreuse snips too!!! lol ( maybe “eye of gnat” instead of “eye of newt”…yes?)

I like designing as I go along…and also sometimes when you sketch on the linen quickly, you need to adjust things so the hooked motifs don’t run into each other! (unless you want them to!!) 🙂 I’m tweaking a bit and changing my mind here and there but I am having fun and liking what I am doing. So that’s the whole idea!!!

Hmmm…maybe this is a plague of grasshoppers on a couple of fields? Yes, No…hmmm!

So here is my Progress on Day 9…Happy hooking! Sunnie 🙂

I am a folk artist now living in Vancouver, Washington. We loved our Vermont "Old Crow Farm" but now I live in a little cottage with a bright yellow front door!
I no longer have my business but still love designing and hooking rugs and experimenting with colour...! I do "mystery rugs" on my Blog and that is great fun!

When you get more info on the hook-in would you let me know? I don’t know the name of the Portland group that is having it, and am not familiar with the area. We leave here in Virginia August 10. I am assuming we will at least be in Seattle area by August 23rd, but don’t know. If I can’t make the hook-in, possibly we could stop at your farm??

Yes, Toni, I’ll let you know when I get more info!!! I am smiling because my “old crow farm” now is an apartment in King City!!! 🙂
But…I will be happy to see if we can arrange a visit sometime at your convenience while you are here! I always enjoy visits with rug hooking friends!!
Happy Hooking! Sunnie 🙂

When the “Ladies of the Hook” were here Thursday, Suzi brought over several boxes of wool donated by a lady who no longer hooks. I got that great chartreuse wool for my “bugs” from that donated wool and several more small pieces of “Halloween-style” wools!!!! 🙂
So I’m putting them right into my rug. I guess these would qualify as “leftovers” too!!!!! lol
